Robin Hood's Chair is a rock located about 100 m due S of [[Robin Hood's Hills (Kirkby in Ashfield)|Robin Hood's Hills]] in Kirkby Forest, not quite 3 km SSE of Kirkby in Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, an area that was once part of Sherrwood Forest. About 640 m SW of these two localities is [[Robin Hood's Cave (Kirkby in Ashfield)|Robin Hood's Cave]]. Some 1.25 km SSW of them, just east of Annesley,  was the [[Robin Hood (Kirkby in Ashfield)|Robin Hood]] public house. Robin Hood's Chair, it would seem, was rediscovered on 22 April 1917 by a Mr J.H. Pointon of Hucknall.<ref>[http://www.picturethepast.org.uk/frontend.php?keywords=Ref_No_increment;EQUALS;NTGM021731&pos=1&action=zoom&id=126269 Picture the Past].</ref>
